Restaurant vapor

Reviewed By Alexandra N - Iasi, Romania

The restaurant is on a proper boat on the Danube wich makes the view amazing.
The design of the place is indeed original and sets a nice atmosphere, eventhough it's not very clean.
The food is average at most- we ordered fried Salau file with scotish potatoes and garlic dressing and Ciuleandra with cabbage salad.
The fish was deep fried (not mentioned by the server) and the potatoes were a bit boiled and also deep fried. Both lacked any kind of seasoning. The garlic dressing was very nice.
The Ciuleandra was a kind of porc snitzel with some overfried pieces of chicken on top and some melted cheese - nothing impressive.
We waited for some time for the order to be taken and the polenta was missing from the table eventhough we ordered it.
The service was basic and the check was told to us by the server - the amount being incorrect at first.
Overall - the view was amazing - the food not so much- maybe other dishes ar better.

The food is nice, they serve a very nice soup. Overall we liked the food and location but the service could be better. The waitress behaved like she would be angry all the time, she forgot to bring few things we ordered. I think this part could be upgraded a bit to offer better services.

Reviewed By Andra_Maria_2014 - Bucharest, Romania

The view very nice, and the location was handy. The negative part was the waiting way too long for the waiter to get our order and also for the food. Also, the food was decent, not amazing.

Restaurant Pescarus

Reviewed By Lily-AR13 - Milan, Italy

Although the location is a very good one, situated on the Danube, the food is not tasty, the service not the best (however I appreciate the waitress tried her best). You can expect to have a good fish dish, but unfortunately the fishes we tasted were not good at all.
